Just my opinion, we probably could see it coming 5 years ago if the Europeans did not get their act together.
Two years ago, too much had happened, and things moved fast, it was too late.
Sometimes it breaks apart spectacularly, or slides slowly towards and into irrelevance.
Right now, there is no plan whatsoever. All the European politicians are busy doing is trying to blame someone else.

During the Cold War days, sure, but these days, the whole ballgame is about engaging opfor without them even knowing you are there until they get splashed. Not even some modern AAMs will give you the courtesy of a nice clear lock tone before impact.
The very fact you lived to get within WVR of opfor is already overwhelming evidence they are not trying to actually kill you.
In modern air positioning displays like this, a lock tone is purely messaging after a bout of dogfighting to tell the other guy you got them cold and that you are indisputably the superior pilot and/or have the superior plane. Only in the movies or if some literal cold warrior got teleported into the cockpit straight from the 1970s would the pilot genuinely think getting locked in such circumstances means they are seconds away from death.

Monroe Doctrine 2.0 isn't going to work painlessly. If US withdraws back to western hemisphere then the dollar will become toilet paper. Without the dollar hegemony US living standards will decrease enormously.
Trump either isn't aware of this, or perhaps he is aware and he finds that acceptable.
Their upcoming war against Venezuela is presumably to establish their lordship over the American continent. If they are going to do it it better be clean win like Gulf War 1.0, if not even the Monroe Doctrine with a weaker US may not be possible. Afterall starting and failing a war in South America is how USA became New United States in Cyberpunk
Let's not pretend world politics ever had a single shred of morality to it from the get go. It's all just leverage and gains. China is no different. I don't see why China has to lose on softpower and profit due to some people's subjective sense of moral superiority.

You can't simply assume others are as immoral as you. Your baseless accusations are merely an attempt to exonerate those currently engaging in unethical behavior.
If China were willing to gain soft power and profits through unscrupulous actions, it could easily turn the entire East Asia into its colony.
If they can’t even pull off Venezuela then the DC elites better start hitting Governance of China volumes 1-5. Will come in handy sooner than they think it will.
